Yes, I realize it's a recognized music style, but speaking for myself, to me is not music.
Things we cannot be bothered by anymore
Occurred to me today that I have dropped stuff that I cannot just be bothered by anymore, and wondering what some of you out there have let go of as well
Me (lean mostly into analog)
- Lifting a tonearm lever to cue a platter - no more - years off my life
- Carbon brushes, cart cleans with every spin or two - years off my life
- Ugly racks that look like ones I had in 10th grade, though cost 20x more - out
- Listening at low volume levels to gauge audiophile purity
- A/B'ing streaming platforms
Finale - $50 audiophile pressings "remastered from the original master tapes" that sound like sanitized cheese spread - magic gone, warped, drop-outed, bubbled, and gain-whacked (there are exceptions for sure)
How about you?

Rap. IMHO it is music… just not mine. The Super Bowl music should appeal to the masses, not something so controversial as Rap. I do enjoy Rap’s beat. Something like Raye. A beautiful voice both singing and talking, with a Rap like beat. My daughter tells me I ought to consider Rap to be poetry without the bongo drums…🤔 |
You can find some very creative and viable rap but it takes some time and I cant be bothered. Every generation looks back and says the same things about past music. Elvis, the hippie stuff, punk, rap, metal, etc. Worst thing to come along, other than MTV, is the ease at which you can manipulate using digital recording. Give me the Sex Pistols over Boston (or any arena rock band from this era) any day of the week. Oh and how about all that pukey/puffy prog. stuff from the 70s? So many of you have become your parents! |
